Read this passage about Amelia Earhart. Amelia Earhart was born July 24, 1897, in Kansas. She was an adventurous and fun-loving

child. That adventurous spirit remained as she grew older. One day in 1920, after going on a plane ride, she was determined to fly planes. She worked at any job she could find to save up for flying lessons, which cost $1,000. At one point, she worked as a nurse’s aid and a social worker. Six months after receiving flying lessons, Amelia bought her own plane, and she flew as high as 14,000 feet, which set a world record for female pilots. A short time afterward, Amelia became the sixteenth female to earn a pilot’s license. In 1928, an opportunity arose for Amelia to participate in a transatlantic flight across the Atlantic Ocean as a copilot. This experience later came in handy when she became the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic in 1938. She received many honors for this achievement, such as the Distinguished Flying Cross from Congress. As Amelia approached her fortieth birthday, she was planning her biggest trip yet: She wanted to be the first woman to fly around the world. Of course, she needed a lot of help to make this happen. She made a first attempt that failed and damaged her plane. But Earhart was not one to give up, so she made another attempt at the ground-breaking mission. She did make some progress by flying 7,000 miles to New Guinea but did not make it to her next stop, Howland Island. Sadly, Earhart’s plane disappeared, and, despite search and rescue attempts, she was never found. To this day, Earhart is known and celebrated for her bravery, persistence, and commitment to aviation. Which additional details from the passage could be included in a yearbook page about Earhart’s accomplishments? She received many honors for this achievement, such as the Distinguished Flying Cross from Congress. Sadly, Earhart’s plane disappeared, and, despite search and rescue attempts, she was never found. She made a first attempt that failed and damaged her plane. That adventurous spirit remained as she grew older.

Answer:

The correct answer is option A, She received many honors for this achievement, such as the Distinguished Flying Cross from Congress.

Explanation:

This is because option B, Sadly, Earhart’s plane disappeared, and, despite search and rescue attempts, she was never found, is not an achievement which is what most use in a yearbook or analysis of a person or thing.

Option C, She made a first attempt that failed and damaged her plane, is not a goal she reached either. As it was more of a difficulty instead. It was a challenge she had to overcome and not her goal. So it would not likely be included in a yearbook about Amelia Earhart.

Option D, That adventurous spirit remained as she grew older, would most likely be excluded from the yearbook as well because it is more of how Amelia felt and not her timeline. Which is what most yearbooks are, timelines of a certain character. But this would be by second guess because they also include phrases and sometimes feelings in the yearbook as well.

But if I were to answer I would choose option A because flying across Congress is a big accomplishment. So is receiving honors and other rewards.

That's why I would choose option A, She received many honors for this achievement, such as the Distinguished Flying Cross from Congress.

Identify the similes and metaphors in lines 107-122. Think about what Dillard is describing in this paragraph. What function doe
Gemiola [76]

Hello. You did not present the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for this question to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

The metaphor is a figure of speech that promotes a comparison between two elements. This comparison must be promoted implicitly or explicitly and has the function of creating a new meaning and promoting an intensification of this concept. This makes the text deeper and richer, promoting greater reflection on the topics covered.
